This is likely your problem, the ESC needs to be in LiPo mode and not NiMh. That explains why it is cutting out on you (most likely).
I also agree with ditching the AM radio, nowadays you can get a 2.4ghz that will do the job for very little money and it is light years ahead of any AM system you could use.
